Dr Kate Barry - Holistic Health & Nutrition Clinic

I contacted Dr Kate after years of failing to get answers through medical professionals.
I had been living with a whole range of "minor" symptoms like stiff aching joints, hair loss, halitosis, brain fog and constant postnasal drip. I suspected mould but hadn't been able to prove it or get any answers.
After only a few months following Dr Kate's comprehensive and well-paced program of diet, immune system and digestive support, and nervous system support, I feel energetic and healthier than I have in years, I feel 10 years younger.
I highly recommend Dr Kate to anyone with unexplained chronic symptoms, suspected mould illness or anything similar.

Kate is an amazing practitioner! The only Dr that actually made any real noticeable impact on my health. She understands mycotoxins better than anyone I have encountered and I’m so grateful for her guidance thus far. Look forward to continuing my healing journey with her.

I was referred to Dr Kate Barry by The Mould Lady and she has been fantastic to deal with. She's very thorough as she has been exposed to mould herself. She aims to help others that have been exposed to mould as well. The consults are personable and remote which is a bonus, especially when you're constantly tired and don't have to drive to a clinic to see her. Look forward to the journey with her in our future sessions.

My journey with auto-immune markers showing up in my blood tests with GP’s had previously lead me down a road of gut healing attempts with success for good periods of time.
However, after a particularly significant time (4 years) of stress that effected my life and created a lot of unforeseen change, I found myself back in the GP’s room with a diagnosis of two auto-immune diseases.
I found Dr Kate Barry through a friend’s referral and commenced working with her. Delivered over a 6 mth period, Dr Kate’s investigations and recommendations helped me begin to understand the root causes of my issues and start to implement change in a sustainable manner. Nutrition, gut healing, supplementation, environment, nervous system response, movement and de-toxification were all addressed. I was fully supported to make the changes I needed to make through monthly consults with Dr Kate and benefitted from her availability when I had the need to ask questions that came up along the way.
I’m on the way to much better outcomes for myself and am experiencing much healthier times since being part of Dr Kate’s 6 mth program, and can now feel confident enough to self-manage while knowing she is there for consultation if required. I would very much recommend Dr Kate and encourage anyone that is on a journey with their health to book a discovery call with her. Her knowledge and lived experience is second to none, her sessions of a high standard and easy to understand as well as her guidance and support being tailored to each individual within the programs she has created.

I came to see Kate for a family member after seeing many other specialists with no results, and we started to see results from her individualised program in less than 3 months. After 12 months the results have been life changing. If you think you might have a toxin issue and need some detoxing, then I cannot recommend her enough.

Before I started seeing Dr Kate, I was suffering from almost daily agony due to inflammation from mould illness. I would spend most nights wanting to scratch my skin off as well as suffering from regular bouts of brain fog, nausea, fatigue, bloating etc. Since seeing Dr Kate, I have experienced a radical transformation in my bodily and mental health. I no longer spend my nights in agony and am able to live a much happier and fulfilled life. The combination of regular consults, nutritional advice and round the clock sms availability has been an absolute game changer for me. Strongly Recommended.

Dr Barry has been instrumental in my recovery from CIRS. Being diagnosed with CIRS was the single most devastating, isolating, and depressing experience of my life. Dr Barry provided constant support and advice over email and text 24/7. She was very empathetic, provided me with extensive testing, made efforts to understand my approach to health, and guided me through each phase of recovery.

I still have a long road to recovery ahead, but my condition has certainly improved since my exposure thanks to the personalised protocol devised by Dr Barry. If you are suffering from CIRS, Dr Barry is someone you want in your corner in your journey to recovery.

I did the 4 week cleanse with Dr Kate and I HIGHLY RECOMMEND it. The program was easy to follow and the results were fantastic. My skin was glowing but more importantly my inflammation (due to an auto-immune condition) was noticeably reduced. The process helped me identify food triggers I had never known were contributing to my inflammation. Dr Kate was readily available to answer my questions, and was really wonderful to deal with.

I've tried different diets for my Hashimotos many times and always found them too restrictive and difficult to continue with. I loved Kate's 4-week cleanse and was pleasantly surprised at how easy it was to follow, especially because the first week was time spent preparing. I especially found the recipes provided helpful. I lost a little weight, felt much lighter and full of energy and my brain fog cleared. I definitely noticed a big drop in inflammation and my thyroid hormone replacement medication dose was reduced. I was also able to re-introduce eggs into my diet which is wonderful. Thanks Kate!

Kate has really helped me understand more about my diagnosis and subsequent dietary changes. She has guided me through a very complex system of supplements and other supports to ensure that my wish to remain unmedicated has been a reality. I’m feeling good, and am now empowered with more information to support my continued healing. Thank you Kate. I’m very grateful

In 2019 I was diagnosed with lymphocytic colitis. I had the full gamut of digestive symptoms, and it was difficult to manage and very unpleasant. I was prescribed one medication which had no effect and then another which made the symptoms worse. Not knowing where else to turn, I spoke to Kate a few months later and she suggested that I eliminate inflammatory foods since my condition was inflammation-based. After a week or two I started to feel great, and eventually was able to reintroduce some of the old foods once my gut had healed a bit.
Kate advised me that fermented foods may also be helpful, and she also taught me various strategies to slow down my eating - it made such a difference to my digestion! I also had trouble sleeping at night, so Kate suggested I try meditation, especially since there is often a link with stress and digestive symptoms. I did this for many months and if I was experiencing this helped me to relax and sleep better. We’re now introducing probiotics and I have already felt the benefits.

I decided to come to Dr Kate as I was having issues with food intolerances and I had also been diagnosed with Parkinsons. Through Dr Kate I learnt how to be more aware of how my body was reacting to food intake. Also how to reduce inflammation and that the gut is the root of most chronic health issues. Through a structured approach I was finally able to lose weight which I have struggled with for years, my food intolerances are more under control now, my Parkinsons symptoms have plateaud to the point where I now feel I am able to be a productive member of the community.

My experience with Dr Kate has been fantastic, she was always willing to help me overcome any issues that presented, as well as offer support at any time, thus making this journey to better health more achievable. Thank you Dr Kate!

I had been extremely ill for a year and was bedridden and housebound. I couldn't get out of bed, I had no energy to walk, I couldn't even lift up my toothbrush to clean my teeth. Every time I tried to stand up, I felt like I was going to pass out. My heart was racing and beating out of my chest. My gut was an absolute mess, I couldn't eat anything other than meat, if I did, I would crash again and not be able to lift my head up off the pillow the next morning. I had severe pain everywhere in my body. I was stiff. I had pain in my chest and in all my organs. My vision was bad, I had terrible brain fog and memory problems. I felt like my immune system had crashed and my autonomic nervous system was not functioning at all as it should. There was absolute chaos in my body. Nothing was working....I didn't get anywhere with medical doctors. They said my test results were "normal." One doctor told me to stop focusing on my symptoms and asked if I had seen a psychologist lately. I was seriously ill. I literally felt like I was dying....I had about 35 "mystery" symptoms.

After months of tests and research, I suspected that I had CIRS which is from mycotoxin exposure caused by mould. I had been exposed to some serious black mould a couple of months before I fell ill. I mentioned this to my doctors, I saw 3, and this was dismissed immediately. They knew nothing about CIRS. I also saw a heart specialist, who said everything was fine and an endocrinologist, who told me to get a sleep apnea test.

That's when I went online and found Dr. Kate Barry. She has clients all over the world. I started working with Dr Kate and she believed me, she really listened to me and understood everything I had been going through. She is very familiar with CIRS herself.....With the proper tailored nutrition, supplementation and incorporating meditation into my life, I started to feel much better very quickly.

Dr. Kate is such a lovely lady. She is incredibly knowledgeable and gets to the root cause of disease. She doesn't just put a band-aid over the symptoms. You are also able to get in contact with her in between consults, anytime, via sms or email.

To anyone who is suffering with illness, autoimmune issues or "mystery" symptoms and hasn't been able to get answers from mainstream medical doctors, I highly recommend Dr Kate. She's amazing and she will sort your health out, when everyone else fails.

Dr Kate, has helped me through my digestive and nervous system problems. She has a broad background of knowledge and experience and was able to pick up on things that my normal GP wouldn’t have, further speeding up my recovery.
Very helpful clinic!

After being diagnosed with ME/CFS, I was told that it was incurable and that I would just have to manage the symptoms. Something told me this wasn’t the case, that there must be something I could do to at least reduce the symptoms and live a normal life.

That’s when I found Dr Kate, and thank God I did! Kate has taught me the importance of good nutrition, but more importantly that what is good for one person may not be good for another person – we are all unique individuals! The most important thing I’ve learned is to tune into my body and really listen to what it’s telling me. By doing these things, I have gone from bedbound to 80% function in the time I’ve been working with Kate.

Strongly recommend!

I had been perplexed and worried about a tingly sensation on my forehead and scalp along with a host of other symptoms including brain fog, sore muscles and joints and other anomalies that were unexplained by 3 blood tests and and MRI. Kate was able to quickly ascertain that the symptoms were due to mould illness from prolonged exposure and formulate an action plan. Once I removed myself form the mouldy environment and completed the 30 day cleanse (honestly, I have never stopped doing the cleanse!!), my health and my spirits have improved dramatically. Kate was ever present during the emotional move from my home of 15 years and subsequent diet overhaul which was completely out of my comfort zone. The recovery from mould illness is not an overnight matter so I am very grateful for Kate and her expertise around functional nutrition guiding the way.

I've struggled with fatigue my whole life, but I've always just pushed through and been able to function. In mid-2019 I experienced neurological issues and severe fatigue that came on very suddenly and were debilitating. The neuro symptoms even caused me to have a car accident! Kate was already a friend of mine, so I'd heard about her services and booked in for a free chat immediately. After listening to my history and symptoms, Kate suggested my issues may be mould-related.

Kate and I worked on my diet and lifestyle habits and focused on reducing inflammation so as not to exacerbate the inflammatory state being caused by the mould. To be honest, I didn't spend much time cooking prior to that so the the diet was quite hard for me to stick to, but it definitely made me feel lighter and less bloated.

One of the most important things I've learned is to listen to my body, because it's constantly giving me clues about what is good and bad about the environment I'm putting it in. This made a big difference with respect to mould avoidance, and the neuro symptoms reduced enough that I could go back to work after a couple of months.

Although I have now finished the mould detox, I continue to work with Kate on my diet, gut health and detox abilities in order to minimize the thyroid symptoms I continue to suffer from. I can't recommend Kate highly enough!
